Thug Life [Eren Yeager]

5 parts Complete Mature

Time doesn't wait for many. And this comes true for a young man named Eren Yeager. Mind stuck on a goal to become a gang leader ever since his high school years, he became a lowlife thug. Compared to his group of friends he's the only one who couldn't seem to gain that sense of maturity. However, this doesn't bother Eren for he knew that it was his life. No one can tell him what to do or how to live it. All that sense of thinking seems to go down the drain when his ex-girlfriend from high school moves back into the city. As unfazed as Eren was he couldn't ignore the fact that she wasn't alone. Not only would this interrupt his way of living but also draw out the emotions and feelings he thought he would never experience. Modern AU Eren Yeager X OC WARNING: this book will deal with heavy language, drugs, alcohol, adult scenes, as well as violence. Don't read if uncomfortable.
